I posted full instructions for a DH install on my blog a while back:
   http://blog.lrdesign.com/2008/05/installing-insoshi-on-a-dreamhost-account/

This will get it running, but unfortunately your site will go down
after a few hours and there is *NO* way to fix this at present.

This is because Insoshi requires ferret for search, and Dreamhost
won't let you run ferret_server; it's against their rules forbidding
persistent processes.  You can start ferret_server, but DH's process
monitor will kill it within a few hours and your site will go down.
(Switching to sphinx won't fix this, because the sphinx daemon is also
a separate persistent process).

You're fine on a VPS, but not on shared hosting at DH or Bluehost.
Until Insoshi finds a way to optionally configure search using only
MySQL fulltext indices or even just with plain query (instead of a
separate indexer like ferret or sphinx),  Insoshi is not usable on
modern shared hosting providers.
